Thibaut Courtois has another opinion about what happened to the Musiala: “I find it exaggerated”

Donnarumma tried to catch a ball in the box and plunged with all the weight on Jamal Musiala. The German began to scream in pain, and his ankle was twisted, and the Italian goalkeeper began to cry. Manuel Neuer, the Bavarian goalkeeper, spoke in harsh terms at Donnarumma.

Thibaut Courtois reacted after Jamal Musiala's horror injury: “I find it exaggerated to blame Donnarumma”

“It seems to me exaggerated to blame Donnarumma for his Musiala injury. The portaries are thrown behind the ball. The attackers do not stop when they attack us. It was simply bad luck. Manuel Neuer will be more affected, because he is from his team, but Donnarumma is not guilty,” said Courtois.

The incident in question took place towards the end of the first half of the quarterfinals of the World Club Championship and required the replacement of the German player. According to initial information, Musiala suffered a fracture at the left panel and also affected several ligaments, so a long break for several months awaits it. The first estimates show that the year 2025 is concluded for the German star.

When you plunge as Donnarumma, something serious can happen. You have to consider something like this. You just risk provoking a serious injury. It should not be involved. I said, “Don't you want to go to him for a moment? Jamal lies there, he will most likely be taken to the hospital now. I think it is appropriate, out of respect, to go to him, to wish him all the good and to apologize.” Then he went to Jamal. I don't know, the Italians are very emotional. If he really regrets what he has done, everyone can appreciate (no – Donnarumma's reactions). But you have to be a fair play. I would have reacted differently
